No More Internet Eras Pls

28 Mar 2022

Description

Hi pals! A huge ep incoming so get ready. First up, Ash Barty announced her retirement from tennis at age 25 and Harry Styles is returning with new music (and a new era). According to the Internet and the Northern Hemisphere, it’s short king spring. Is this another Internet trend or actually challenging stereotypes? We reference this piece for iD by Laura Pitcher titled ‘It's officially short king spring’ and this Guardian piece by Adrienne Matei titled ‘In praise of short men: will the rise of 'short kings' spell the fall of toxic masculinity?’Next, Doja Cat told the world that she was quitting music over being hassled by fans in Paraguay. This causes us to discuss the relationship between fan and celebrity and the access we have to artists in 2022.  Machine Gun Kelly released a track with Willow recently – the very catchy Emo Girl. It’s started a conversation around the glorification of pain thanks to this Refinery29 article by Elizabeth Whitehead called ‘The Revival Of The ‘Emo Girl’ Is A Slippery Slope To Commodifying Pain’. Is this a one-dimensional look at emo culture though? We also reference this 2018 VICE piece by Emma Garland titled ‘How Mainstream Emo Made Us Talk About Mental Health'. In recommendations, Maggie shares her love and words on Disney+’s Turning Red while Jas recommends a history podcast titled ‘Short History Of…’ OKAY - see you next week friends xoxo Hosted on Acast.
